There are many major issues and questions on both Trade Priorities and Accountability Act (TPP) and Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP). There is confusion of what these entail and what is actually being voted on in Congress. Are there Constitutional issues regarding “Powers” and responsibilities? Is TPP really a Treaty?
